Ireland Wants More R&D Workers

Interested in working overseas? Then Ireland might be the place for you. The country is already well-known as one of Europe's technology centers, and now the government has rolled out a new program to make it easier for foreign researchers to work there.

The new Euraxess.ie web portal aims to make it easier for R&D people to take contracts in Ireland, and even to bring their entire families there for the extent of their contract. You won't even need a green card or work permit, that's how much they want you there.

Euraxess is actually EU-wide, but this new Irish version of the portal takes things several steps further that most other European countries and making the country even more attractive to researchers.

Give it a try. But if you get a job there, don't kiss the Blarney Stone. You don't want to know why.
